We are a small "private" rabbitry, located in west-central Illinois. I am a teacher and my husband is a police officer. We have 5 children between the ages of 5 and 14 years old. We are also foster/adoptive parents, so we often have additional angels among us.

Safe Haven Rabbitry first began as a 4-H project for our children, and quickly became a family hobby and obsession for me. I also wanted a rabbit that I could bring into our classroom and share with my students. I grew up on a farm and my family raised rabbits. I am excited to share that experience with my children.

Upon starting out, we did our homework, looking for the "just right" breed(s). We decided on the Jersey Wooly ... and soon welcomed the English Angora. Our family fell in love immediately! As you can imagine, our "wooly friends" get a lot of attention and are very pampered!
